How does a partner add a 'split billing' customer?

How do I set up automatic reimbursement for charging sessions with a public charging card to the private account of the charging station owner, while the subscription is paid by the company (split billing)?

With split billing, there is a customer that consists of two organizations and two payment streams to two different bank accounts. There is a main organization that pays for the platform subscription, and a suborganization that receives reimbursement for the kWh charged with a public charging card. The main organization pays from its own bank account, and the suborganization is reimbursed to its own bank account. An example of this split billing case is an employer providing an employee with a charging station at home, where the employee has their own energy contract and needs to be reimbursed for the charged electricity to their own bank account.

Follow the next steps if you don't have created a company organization yet. If you already created a company organization then start at step 3.

Steps:

  1. In the left menu, navigate to ‘Organizations’ and click on ‘+ Add organization’.

  2. Go through the ‘wizard’ and add the organization that pays for the subscription (this is the  company ‘main organization’) for the split billing customer.

  3. Once the ‘main organization’ is added, click on the tile of this organization and add a new organization underneath via ‘+ Add organization’. This is the ‘suborganization’, and during this step, the bank account number of the ‘suborganization’ should be entered, as this organization will receive reimbursement for the charged kWh.

  4. Go through the wizard again and make sure to check the box for ‘Split the bill for this organization’. Ensure that it correctly displays who is paying for the subscription and who is receiving the reimbursement for the charged kWh.

  5. Then, add the location under the ‘suborganization’.

  6. Finally, add the charging station under the location.

This will successfully set up split billing.

Final notes

  • When setting the reimbursement amount per kWh this should be done in the sub-organization and not the main organization.
  • Always add the location under the sub-organization, not the main organization.

  • Then, add the charging station to the location.
